KRAUTROCK TOP#14 : NEU!, 1st (1972)
You've seen this album in thousands of blogs... well, it's obviously a "must have" in the krautrock genre, and, unlike many psych / folk / experimental kraut albums, is absolutely not dated. I won't say anything that has not been told about it, except my favourite track is not the famous opening "hallo gallo" that defines the typical NEU! metronomic sound and style (their entire 2nd album is based on a variation of it), but the incredible pre-industrial and full of tension "Negativland" that I could hear 10 times a day when I've bought the album.
If you don't heave it yet, it's here.

vielen dank. thanks very much.
You're right, Negativland is a really cool track, way ahead of its time — PIL obviously learnt a thing of two from it. I don't listent to Neu! very often but I'm glad they existed at all.
